Description
A simple and flavorful side dish featuring tender broccoli florets roasted at high heat until golden and crispy on the edges, tossed with olive oil and savory seasoning for a healthy, satisfying addition to any meal.
Ingredients
2 cups broccoli florets
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon all-purpose seasoning blend
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, toss the broccoli florets with olive oil, all-purpose seasoning blend, and freshly ground black pepper until evenly coated.
- Spread the broccoli in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring the pan is not overcrowded.
- Roast for 18 to 22 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the stems are tender and the edges are golden and lightly charred.
- Remove from the oven and serve immediately while hot and crispy.
Notes
Add freshly minced garlic before roasting for a stronger garlic flavor.
Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the broccoli before serving for brightness.
Sprinkle grated parmesan cheese during the last few minutes of roasting for added texture (not vegan).
Add red pepper flakes for a touch of heat.
Do not overcrowd the pan to achieve crispy edges.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Reheat in the oven or air fryer at 375°F to restore crispiness.
